Follow these steps to create a new multidimensional resource
plan.
Before you begin
- You must have access to consumer "/" with resource plan control permission to create a new
resource plan.
- You must have at least one multidimensional resource group defined
in the cluster. If you need to create a new multidimensional resource
group, see Creating multidimensional resource groups.
Procedure
-
From the cluster management console
Dashboard, select .
- Click Create to create a new plan.
A pop-up window is displayed.
-
Specify a resource plan name. The plan name can be any descriptive name you want to assign to
your resource plan.
The name must adhere to the following rules:
- The resource plan name must be unique.
- The resource plan name must not use the same name as the resource group name.
- The name can only contain alphanumeric characters, hyphens (-), and underscores (_).
- The resource plan name can be a maximum of 64 characters.
-
Select the multidimensional resource groups that you want to associate with this plan. Only
resource groups that are configured as multidimensional resource groups are shown in the list.
Note: You can modify which resource group is associated with this resource plan under the
Properties tab on the Multidimensional Resource Plan
page if you are a cluster administrator or have root consumer permission. If you do not have one of
these permissions, you cannot apply or revert changes to a resource group specification once the
resource plan is created..
- Specify up to four different resource metrics that you
want to schedule for this plan. When specifying resource metrics,
consider the requirements of the applications that will run under
the plan and which types of resources are best suited for those applications.
If you want to add custom metrics to the plan, see Configuring custom resource metrics.
- Click Create.
A
configuration file named MDPlan.xml is created
at $EGO_CONFDIR.
